ebt (food stamps) no longer paying for soda pop?
I'm watching America this morning news and they said 15 cities are considering a ban on soda sales with ebt.

Anybody know what cities and how far this has made it?

Sounds like a good plan, they should make you take a class on what foods are good and bad to get your food stamps.

I know when you are on food stamps, its not like you can eat organic. But soda pop seems like a luxury item, And not a necessity.

They didn't mention the states or cities. But same here, I think anything non alcoholic that's edible can be bought on ebt.

Including lobster, ready to feed baby formula and many other things that most of us consider to be a luxury item.

Think this will turn into a national rule?

My guess is most people on ebt will sell enough food stamps to buy some pop

They'll sell enough food stamps to buy their dope fix. It should be a national law but I doubt it will happen.

True, except they have WIC, Women, infants and children program that provides baby formula, milk, cereal, cheese and I forget what else.

People get special vouchers to use at the store...woe to you if you get stuck behind someone using them, you'll be there forever.
